I never understood this "joke"

I've seen comments on Twitter and sometimes Tumblr. It would be a picture of a feminine gay boy and the caption would say "fatherless" or one would ask "where's his father"



what is this suppose to mean?


I'm gay and I have a Father so.... cant really cope with that nonsense

People say that? That's so mean!

A lot of people on Twitter use that to describe Lohanthony.

Never got it

idgi either

They're trying to say that a boy brought up without a strong male/masculine influence in his life will turn out gay or "feminine". It doesn't make sense though because there are lots of gays with fathers present in their lives, like my brother for instance.

People being ignorant smh

I think it's basically stating that there isn't a masculine figure in his life, thus he has become a mirror of femininity. Whatever it is, it is stupid, as it is completely inaccurate and there is nothing wrong with femininity of masculinity.

I don't really know but I cackle every time I see it

Disgusting homophobia to be honest. I'm really tired of people bashing "feminine" gays and I really don't understand why people on here regard being a "bottom" as something bad, like a gay person calling another a "bottom" as an insult...

Its mostly gays who say it to other gays too

Their saying that feminine boys lack a strong masculine figure in their life and they are "confused"

I'm a fatherless gay and I'm the farthest thing from Lohanthony. People associate you not having a father in your life to the reason why someone is gay. Apparently not having a father in your life is the path towards gay.

I have a father and I'm not "manly"

Dum people are dum.

I didn't have a dad but Ive had plenty of daddies
